Chapter 432: It's Farming Again
"This large-scale military expansion requires the establishment of a recruit training camp, and the location is still the recruit training camp in Yetaoshan. With the addition of these soldiers, the monthly military ration consumption of each team will inevitably increase greatly." Zhengliang decided to list the reasons one by one.
According to the laws of the Luo family, the daily consumption of the army and the reward of military merits are directly extracted from civil and agricultural reserves, while the military food is only used for military food during combat. With the scale of the Luo family's standing team after the expansion of the army, the monthly food consumed must be a lot of food. Even in the second half of the year, additional food is needed to ensure these regular daily training.
After listing the regular daily consumption, Zhengliang began to list other consumption points.
"According to reports, the relocation of the wealthy families in the newly occupied area of Feihou has been completed, and the relocation of the wealthy families in the aftermath is still in progress, which also requires a lot of food." According to the laws of the Luo family, every time a new territory is occupied, the local wealthy families will almost be moved to other places.
For the tyrants who had resisted stubbornly, they directly exterminated the clans, leaving only the female relatives behind, and the female relatives would be dispersed and sent to other places to settle down. Although the tyrants who actively surrendered and cooperated, they would not be exterminated, but they would also be transferred. Of course, the relocation here is generally only for the relatives of the tyrants, and it has no impact on ordinary people, so the scale will not be too large.
The migrated wealthy families will re-take roots in a new place, and their original territory will be granted to the retainers and soldiers of the Luo family. This will avoid the betrayal of some wealthy families who are still careful in their hearts to a certain extent, and their old territory will quickly fall into the control of the Luo family, which is conducive to the rapid promotion of the Luo family's laws.
When those rich families with small thoughts grow up again, they will find that either they have been gradually assimilated to completely surrender to the Luo family. Or they are surrounded by supporters of the Luo family, and even the territories in their territory are also hard-core supporters of the Luo family. In the end, they lose the ability to make trouble in secret.
Of course, if the newly occupied territories are to settle down quickly, it is not possible to rely solely on such a policy of relocation of wealthy families, so there is a policy of more food consumption under Zhengliang.
"The law on restricting the forts will continue to be implemented in the territory. In Himemaki, Rie Castle, Hamada Castle, Imari Castle, Kishigaki Castle, Imari Castle, and Kishigaki Castle in Himemaki County; Iimoki Castle, Hirota Castle, and Matsugaki Castle in Fujitsu County; Matsugaki Castle, Kashima Castle, and Kashima Castle among the four counties of Sagaya. Except for these forts, the rest of the forts in Himemaki must be demolished. Before, after, and before, the forts in Himemaki, the forts in Himemaki will be temporarily retained." With this order, the forts in Himemaki will basically be demolished.
In addition, the Roche law emphasized that without the permission of the king, no one was allowed to build a fort in the territory. There would be basically no forts with city walls in Feiqian, and the only thing left was open towns and towns. The main purpose of Masayoshi's doing this was to relieve the barriers between the areas in Feiqian and prevent the situation of retainers and nobles from taking over the city after the rebellion.
"Accelerate the construction of all avenues in the territory and widen and pave the original avenues in various places, especially the roads connecting fronts, after building, and front-end border towns to expand and pave the roads. In order to speed up the progress, as the basic material for paving roads, its manufacturing workshops will be set up in Nakamura Castle and Yanagawa Castle respectively."
Cement here refers to the inferior cement produced in the Luoshi Cement Workshop. The quality of this cement is in later generations. As a manufacturer, you will definitely be fined and pulled into the dark room. However, for the current Luoshi Family, it is still a very good building material.
Compared with roads paved with traditional mud and stone, the maintenance cost of avenues paved with low-quality cement mixed with sand and stone will be much lower. Most importantly, when it rains, the muddy conditions of traditional mud and stone roads will be much less. This is conducive to the march of the army and the daily travel of the people.
"Increase water conservancy construction and vigorously release water conservancy construction and repair corvee service to ensure that all water conservancy facilities along the rivers and streams in the territory are perfected and utilized, and more importantly, ensure that every field can be irrigated."
"The cultivation of farmland cannot be relaxed. There are still many places in the areas occupied in the former fertile area that can be reclaimed. The newly occupied areas must not only restore local farmland production as soon as possible, but also vigorously promote the cultivation of newly imported farmland. In this regard, it can be carried out simultaneously with the resettlement of new refugees and newly purchased population."
"The new crops such as the divine melons (that is, sweet potatoes, which are generally called divine melons or political melons by the leaders) and corn should also be vigorously promoted in the newly occupied areas, and farmers can be guided to plant them in such a way as appropriate rewards."
"To increase the investment in various workshops, I plan to double the investment in workshops this year to expand the number of people and scale of workshops."
"Finally, there are new population purchases, recruitment and resettlement of refugees outside the territory, and resettlement of Ming immigrants. Especially the resettlement of Ming immigrants. Now there are thousands of Ming immigrants near the Yegaoshan. Next, one or two Ming immigrant settlements will be set up in each county in Feiqian. Remember, these immigrants will be the consuls of their families from now on, and they must be treated equally or even treated with superiority." After saying these plans, Zhengliang deliberately paused, leaving some time for his retainers to think and react, and finally said:
"So. Everyone, do you think the budget for 80,000 grains is still high?"
After hearing the head of the family, all the retainers, including Heiji Togo subconsciously shook their heads. What a joke, the head of the family's plan is too large. It is estimated that the 80,000 stone of grain is enough for half a year. Now it is not because of the excessive food, but because of the lack of food.
Fortunately, in addition to this 80,000 grain, there are 30,000 civil and agricultural reserves and 70,000 military reserves in the territory warehouse. In addition, the grain purchased in various ways is completely enough to support the autumn harvest.
After arranging some territorial affairs again, the family assessment meeting finally came to an end. After the assessment, Masayoshi left behind Duanmu Qingzheng and Mu Zao Chongzhong.
